That's why I've wrote a book
Neg#002: The P-port adapters seem very flimsy. They work allreight, but...
I still worry about them - but they work on rays, Dräger FFM etc, so why not here.[/quote]
Dräger P-port connectors seems weak, but they work fine. I've use it on some home made breathers before the rEvo, and it's probably the only parts which have always works without pb.

Neg#007: rEvodreams often wake up during transport,
Look if the pin which maintain batteries is enough tighten. When it not, contact can be loosed, and when it go back the rEvodream wake up (and go to sleep after some min in PpO2 < 0.5). I've seen some rEvo with this pb.
Setting can't be changed and calibration can't run by themselves.
When you change batteries you can see the rEvodream automaticly wake up.

Neg#011: Gas-addition in exhale, is not keyed, wich can cause it to rotate during transport affecting operation of ADV (has not posed a real problem for me).
If you transport it with the cassette inside, it don't rotate. If you transport it without cassette, you look the system when you put the cassette.

Neg#012: Cells mount, in inhale-lung is not keyed, causing it to rotate during
transport, indirectly causing some cells to gather water on their membranes
(has not posed a real problem for me).
Same than #11
I've made thousand and thousand of km in car with my rEvo and have not encounted that sort of problem.

Neg#015: even with small amounts of water in the lungs, if the rEvo is placed on its back it will enter the scrubbers. So dont place it on its back...
I always put it on its back on a soft mat, and have never seen pb with water.
But it's possible to take the cassettes off during the transport. Tupperware can do the job for the cassettes -and for the sorb.

Neg#017: The simple 4-point tank-attachment are difficult to see if correctly placed (the two hooks on the inside).
Just try to rotate the tank. If you can rotate even a little, the attachement is not correct.

Neg#019: Its heavy.
Heavy ?
Less than many other breathers.
But your right, for travel, specially by plane, the carbo-titanium version is a must !
An other possibility is to travel without the tanks and rent it on the holidays place. Inspiration tanks fit the rEvo.
